rough running Sign In

i have a 93 chevy cavalier 2.2l phv mpfi. the car was surging whlie driving down the roadon an off.
also the car had a rough idle while in gear.i changed spark plugs wires to no avail. they looked ok'
i the changed the tpi sensor ,took a quart of oil out of transmission and added a quart of transmission
fix. this seemed to take care of the surging problem but when i come to a stop light or sign i have to put
in nutralor the engine runs very rough.hope someone has any ideasCrazy

You should install a fuel pressure guage, and check for spark at all cylinders with a spark tester. These engines had coil and module problems.

If you have an automatic tranny...check your torque converter to flywheel bolts.
